Hi,
Apologies if in the wrong forum, tried the "common faults" forum but could not find the "new thread" button.
I'm trying to diagnose an issue with my towing electrics. The indicators work but nothing else does. I seem to be getting about 4v at the side lights, 6v at the brake lights. All other lights on the vehicle work, it's just the towing electrics:
I have:
- installed a new towing socket
- removed, cleaned and re-bolted the main battery ground to the chassis next to the transmission casing
- run a ground lead direct from the battery to negate a grounding issue
- checked for any connectors at the rear but the wiring loom seems to go direct into the chassis with no connector blocks at the rear of the vehicle.
Any ideas on how I can get my tail lights working?
